Quando sarà la mod completa?

Amazing mod!!! Looking forward to the continuation of the cars!! Their aggressiveness is excellent on the track.

This mod crashes my game when the track is loading??

Can you make the Life F1 car from the 1990 season

Simply The Best

Do you already have a solution to the problem of the lack of turbo in the 1986?
Cyril Pustetto 23 Apr, 2024 @ 1:16am 
Hi !! Do you always work for the others cars ?
Doddynco  [author] 19 Jan, 2024 @ 6:07am 
@Cyril Pustetto thank you Cyril that's great to hear :) work is in progress at the moment. I'm currently working on a major physics revision for the existing cars before continuing. An update for rf2 caused an issue with the front tyres, which is unlikely to be fixed by s397.
Cyril Pustetto 12 Jan, 2024 @ 10:12am 
What a great mod !!! My favorite Season in F1 story. I Come on this page every day to see if there are new cars... Will you continue your work....?
Thanks 👍
oliver_ray  [author] 13 Dec, 2023 @ 3:24am 
@maskownik, same answer than Doddy for me.
For the H shifter, it's something related to the gear protection system made be S397 to avoid fast downshift cheat.
We will see how to manage that because i also think it's a tip drivers where using irl.
Maybe as an option in upgrades too. Stay tuned ;)
Doddynco  [author] 11 Dec, 2023 @ 6:36am 
@maskownik Thank you :) the mirror issue is known and will perhaps be fixed at a later date if I can get some help on it. Unfortunately, RF2 H-pattern simulation is very limited - it is configured as best as I think it can be done currently.
juzek inwalicki 8 Dec, 2023 @ 2:44am 
Mod seems really nice, but I've come across some minor issues.

The mirrors seem to be broken (looking right down at the track). It is also impossible to short-shift in the h-pattern mode (maybe that's a feature, and not a bug?).

Agreeing with others below, these are amazing, best sims of 1986 cars that I have seen (and which are among my all time favourites). PLEASE do the rest of the cars ASAP, starting with the Lotus and Ferrari!
richard.meller 25 Nov, 2023 @ 8:37am 
Awesome to see the Williams and new cars coming. I cannot wait to have the full grid. This truly is a wonderful mod. Thank you for your hard work. It is appreciated!
Luprox 25 Nov, 2023 @ 1:19am 
Thank you for taking on this.
In the standard view there is rF2
TV cockpit
cockpit
Nose
Swingman
In fact, I like driving with the TV cockpit cam.
You simply have more overview!
Doddynco  [author] 24 Nov, 2023 @ 5:21pm 
@Luprox Thank you :) The cam you have shown is supposed to be a TV cam and is not really intended for driving. I do understand though the desire to drive from the cam position shown on the Mclaren as it gives a great view of the road. I'll have a look to see if I can implement the high driving cam in addition to the TV cam.
Luprox 24 Nov, 2023 @ 7:19am 
Great mod!
Can you do the driving cam (bonnet) on the Williams like it is on the McLaren. The McLaren is much better!
See image.

richard.meller 24 Oct, 2023 @ 12:02am 
That’s great news! Best of luck with the future. This is such a great mod.
Doddynco  [author] 22 Oct, 2023 @ 1:14pm 
@Damos Avel Thank you :) Unfortunately the mirrors were done in a way which makes it very time consuming o modify. Updating the mirrors will have to wait until the other cars are finished.
Damos Avel 22 Oct, 2023 @ 6:35am 
Your work is amazing!
Do you have any plans to repair your mirrors?
On triple screens they are not adjustable! 🤷‍♂️
oliver_ray  [author] 15 Oct, 2023 @ 1:37pm 
No it's not dead.
Just on pause for personal lack of time ;)
Will be back asap
richard.meller 14 Oct, 2023 @ 1:07am 
Is this dead? Shame if it is, but I appreciate it must take lots of effort
jepeto 19 Aug, 2023 @ 5:44am 
is it possible an update with the grid ? best regards
deangelis777 27 Apr, 2023 @ 9:37am 
thanks for such detailed explanation!
Doddynco  [author] 27 Apr, 2023 @ 6:33am 
@deangelis777 Thanks for the feedback :)

1. Yes I'm aware of this. It is due to a miscalculation I made on how air/drag affects the tyre temperature. The tyres are not getting up to temp generally. Not great and I'm sorry for this error, but I know how to fix this and it will be sorted in the next update.

2. Yeh each car is completely different from the other (other than components that they do actually share like tyres, for example). The Brabham will probably perform better at faster circuits.
Doddynco  [author] 27 Apr, 2023 @ 6:33am 
@deangelis777

3. I have not worked on the ai much other than to make sure they can handle the vehicles as the idea was to balance out the pack once all the vehicles are added .The ai were too fast before the update , but aside from that they were generally well behaved. A big issue with the ai is that they take 0ms to change gear, meaning that they loose no boost pressure during a shift. This was hard coded and a big issue. Everything AI related has changed since the update, but I've been taking a little break and have yet to use RF2 since then so I don't know what's changed. They will be getting attention in the next update nonetheless.
deangelis777 24 Apr, 2023 @ 9:52am 
I have some questions:
1) after last updates cars became harder to drive, I struggle just to keep this car on the track...it seems to be unstable cuz of lacking of grip and is very sensitive on acceleration...
2) is there any difference in speed between different cars?? AI on Brabham is faster than Mclaren... how is it possible?
3) AI needs to be tuned
richard.meller 23 Apr, 2023 @ 2:35am 
This is a fantastic package - looking forward to the next batch of cars - thank you for doing this.
jepeto 13 Apr, 2023 @ 12:27pm 
the mac laren is very succeedfantastic work from you i hope for others cars in this era
Dale 21 Feb, 2023 @ 3:44pm 
Can't say enough good things about this mod, love what you're doing and how you are approaching your work. As you say the devil is in the details and you guys are just nailing it!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
criscorraini 16 Feb, 2023 @ 9:44am 
Great job! What a improvement in the McLaren car, the sound, physics and details... much better than previous version... I can´t wait for another teams!!
deangelis777 14 Jan, 2023 @ 6:05am 
thanks a lot for new update! Brabham's car feels fantastic! this mod is gem of rF2 without any doubt!
Loukas zonas 5 Jan, 2023 @ 1:20pm

deangelis777 18 Oct, 2022 @ 2:29am
